INSTRUCTIONS. 

Plow  and  Dado  Cutters,  7-16,  9  16,  11-16,  13-16,  15-16,  are  used  with  3^, 

Plow  and  Dado  Forms  by  inserting  between  Front  Form  and  Main  Stock  1-16  inch  strip, 
increasing  width  1-16  to  match  the  Cutters,  thus  using  one  Form  for  two  size  Cutters,  and 
a  saving  of  25  cents  each. 

In  working  Sash  or  Matching,  the  ^  Dado  Form  and  Cutter  is  used  on  Main  Stock  as 
shown  in  Fig.  1. 

A  Cutter  is  used  in  Auxiliary  Stock,  and  with  its  Fence  is  moved  on  Cross-Bars  and  set 
to  cut  any  required  width,  using  ^  inch  Cutter  for  thin  and  14  inch  for  thick  Tonguing. 
These  Cutters  are  furnished  with  Auxiliary  Stock. 

On  Front  Cross-Bar  is  an  Adjustable  Depth  Gauge.  In  working  Chamfer  Sash,  a 
beveled  piece  is  furnished  with  Cutter  for  use  on  Depth  Gauge,  to  gauge  the  cut. 

In  making  other  Sash,  the  Adjustable  Fence  attached  to  Auxiliary  Stock  is  set  to  give 
any  width  of  Fillet  required  on  Sash,  and  gives  a  bearing  on  Auxiliary  Stock  which  guides 
the  Plane. 

In  planing  grooves,  a  Cutter  the  right  width  is  inserted  in  Main  Stock,  moving  the 
Fence  and  Auxiliary  Stock  on  Cross-Bars 'and  set  to  guide  the  Plane  where  cut  is  wanted. 
The  same  method  is  used  where  Fence  is  required  for  other  work. 

For  some  operations  it  will  be  necessary  to  revej’se  or  turn  end  for  end  the  Fence  in 
oi’der  to  bring  it  close  under  the  Cutter  in  Main  Stock. 


REVERSIBLE  AND  ADJUSTABLE  FENCE. 


Grooving  Attachment  to  be  applied  to  Main  Stock,  and,  v/ith  necessary  Cutters,  consti¬ 
tutes  a  Grooving  Plane  of  all  sizes  for  Tonguing  and  Grooving.  By  reversing  the  Fence,  a 
Front  Filletster  can  be  made. 


In  Tonguing  and  Grooving  we  recommend  the  use  of  an  Extra  Main  Stock  with  the 
Grooving  Attachment,  shown  in  Fig.  2,  applied. 

This  allows  one  Plane  each  for  Tonguing  and  Grooving,  which  is  a  convenience. 

The  Extra  Main  Stock  will  be  found  useful  in  other  work  and  will  repay  the  cost. 


SOME  OF  THE  SPECIAL  ADVANTAGES  CLAIMED. 

The  ease  and  quickness  with  which  the  tools  can  be  adjusted  from  one  Plane  to  another. 

The  different  forms  stand  in  the  same  relation  to  the  Main  Stock  as  different  bits  for- 
boring  holes  do  to  the  brace  to  which  they  are  attached  and  detached.  They  are  easily'and 
(luickly  adjusted,  are  made  of  metal,  and  not  liable  to  g^^t,put  of  order  either  by  friction, 
vvaiping,  bvveiling  or  shrinkage,  as  is  the  case  wiih  ait  wooden  tools.  Inis  PJane' wiii 
jierform  a  variety  of  useful  operations  impossible  with  any  other  tool  in  use. 

It  is  the  best  Carpenters’  Plow  ever  invented  for  the  following  reasons: 

Every  Dado  acts  as  a  Plow  ;  having  Spurs  in  advance  of  the  Cutter,  will  cut  as  well 
across  as  with  the  grain.  The  Form  being  the  width  of  the  Cutter,  the  Plane  runs  steadily, 
not  allowing  the  Cutters  to  tear  out  pieces  in  working  curly,  cross-grained  wood. 

The  Patented  Form  Plates  are  adjustable  The  Front  Form  can  be  set  for  a  close 
mouth  The  Back  Form  sets  against  the  Cutter  and  prevents  springing 

In  purchasing  this  valuable  combination  of  Tools,  a  saving  is  effected  of  nearly  two- 
thirds  the  cost  of  the  same  Tools  if  they  were  bought  separately  in  the  old  style. 

The  weight  of  complete  Set  is  less  than  30  lbs.,  and  can  be  packed  in  space  less  than 
one  cubic  foot. 

They  are  universally  endorsed  by  the  vast  number  of  Carpenters  using  them. 

When  a  complete  set  of  these  Tools  is  not  wanted ,  any  separate  part  can  be  ordered  and 
other  parts  added  when  desired.  In  placing  this  Tool  on  the  market  we  have  aimed  to  so 
perfectly  construct  the  various  parts  that  no  fault  could  be  found,  and  believe  the  desired 
result  has  been  accomplished  The  testimony  of  many  carpenters  attest  the  superiority  of 
this  combination  over  all  other  Planes.  We  therefore  safely  guarantee  satisfaction  to  the 
purchaser.  All  orders  and  for  further  information,
